Hi , How are those drawbar test's done ? Did they pull the unit adding resistance to the tractor in the form of braking the test rig till the tractor came to a standstill , the clutch or tires slipped or the engine just couldn't do it anymore ? The reason I ask is I just got to thinking when you mentioned a loadcell on the testing rig . I could set up the loadcell from one of the cranes I operate with a cable on each end with an eye to hook to the drawbar and a immovable object like the crane itself ( somewhere near 120,000 lbs with 120 ft of boom and the counterweight on it setting on the outrigger jacks or about 91,000 ready to transport ) . Just hook up the tractor and let out the clutch till the clutch smokes :) or the tires spin and read the readout in pounds . Just a thought . But I would be interested in what the old M and the Oliver 1755 really could pull in real life in their advanced years . Take care ...Randy
